“Living winery history below the Etna”
Fantastic atmosphere in an old winery, with beautiful surroundings. We should have stayed more just to sit, relax and draw in the garden. The roof terrace has a panoramic view to the Etna. You can feel the living history here. The breakfast was very good and Nino was very helpful. Definitely would like to go back some time!

It was a very charming location on a farm. The reception by the host was warm and welcoming. We were the only guests late in the year but got a nice breakfast caring for dietary restrictions.

“For those looking for traditional Sicilian food and hospitality look no further...”
Superb service from Nino and his wife. This old house and it's gardens is a rare treat. Very much a traditional farmstay with a fantastic finner and breakfast served in the great hall. An experience never to be forgotten.

“A charming property with stunning views and welcoming hosts, but it lacks upkeep and comfort in some areas.”
The property is set on stunning land with breathtaking views, and the presence of sweet animals on the farm adds a charming, rustic feel to the experience. The building itself has great appeal and a lot of potential, with a unique character that could make it truly special. The hosts were incredibly kind and welcoming, and the dinner prepared by the host’s wife was absolutely outstanding—a warm and memorable highlight of our stay.
